Camping Breakfast Recipes

For most, the average work-week morning is downright dreadful. You wake up still bleary-eyed and exhausted. After knocking back some coffee as quickly as you can, it’s time for the struggle to get the kids up and moving. The rest of your whirlwind morning is spent trying to get them ready for school, while simultaneously attempting to get at least half-put together for work.

At the campsite, mornings couldn’t be more different. The sun is shining softly through the trees, the birds are chirping gleefully, and you couldn’t be more awake or refreshed; somehow, even the old-fashioned percolated coffee tastes better. With ample time to start your day, you might even have time to cook up a tasty campsite breakfast for everyone.

The following breakfast recipes are a satisfying way to start the day, and easy enough to make that they won’t get frustrating or take all morning. With them, you’ll be cracking the eggs, flipping the pancakes, and frying up the bacon to create a breakfast very much worth devouring – and remembering.

Mini Pancakes

Reader Recipe: from S. Holmes movie fan

Pancake mix

Water

1/4 measuring cup

Bowl

Skillet/frying pan

Spoon or very small spatula

A heat source (of course)

First, take the measuring cup, pancake mix, and water and put 1/4 cup of mix into a bowl. Then take about 1/3 of the 1/4 cup and fill with water ( you sort of have to eyeball this).Pour into bowl. Mix well.
When complete, pour batter onto skillet and let sit until multiple bubbles start to appear or until other side is a golden- brown. Cook other side the same.
To make a bigger pancake, just multiply ingredients evenly. Good Luck!

Breakfast Burrito’s – Submitted by Cliff Maurand

There are two ways to make these…

First way is to scramble some eggs and mix in chopped/sautéed sausage.

Heat a soft flower tortilla directly over the stove burner for a few seconds on each side.

The other way is to fry up a couple eggs, and also fry up a couple of sausage patties.

Heat tortilla as described above.

Place two fried eggs on tortilla, then two sausage patties.

Add a couple slices of cheese, sour cream and salsa as desired.

Both are simple to make, easy to handle, and the kids love them!

Cooking Eggs – submitted by a reader

Cut an orange in half. Remove the pulp. Try not to tear the peal. Crack an egg open and put into orange peel. Set peel filled with egg onto a bed of coals. The moisture from the orange peel will cook the egg. Add salt & pepper.

Put your name on the Ziplock Bag
Put all ingredients in the Ziplock Bag. **Make sure it is zipped!
Use fingers to mix it up
Place it in the boiling water (it will float)
Should take 5 – 10 minutes to cook
Lift out with tongs. If the moister is out of the bag and the egg is pulling away from the bag it is done…if not put it back in the water for a few more minutes!!

The top of the bag cools quickly! You can then open it, salt and pepper it and eat it straight out of the bag!!
